| Accidents at work - Information for employers |
|
Employers Sleep problems have become an epidemic in Quebec, as everywhere in North America. The percentage of obese people is increasing every year and the amount of sleep decreases. These two factors increase the risk of accidents at work and increase the risk of monetary loss for a business.
The work quality of your employees is largely linked to their sleep. If your employee has not had a night of restorative sleep, this problem may lead to excessive daytime sleepiness as is reported by 10 to 30% of subjects. Drowsiness and decreased alertness represents a significant risk of car accidents , work and everyday life injuries. A study reported a high number of accidents in people suffering from sleep apnea. Subjects with poor sleep show a record of high absenteism at work and increase significantly the costs related to the company. The productivity of your workers is diminished by the inability to have a good night sleep and good rest to start a working day in good shape.
